Cowl Girls

Well, plenty of cowls to knit! There are 40 patterns to knits things to wrap around your neck, and go over your head. Most of these designs can be called cowls, I think, but there are a few hats as well.

There is a wide range of techniques used in these knits and the patterns range from quick and easy (thick yarn on fat needles) to more complex, like this colorwork cowl:

Ooo! I would love to win this book. I have already added it to my amazon.com wishlist, but to win it here would be extra sweet! I started planning my winter knitting projects, with some thoughts about knitting for gifts, so this book would be a big help. Thanks! Jo Ann

I never considered myself a cowl person until I made one for a friend last Xmas. It was so snuggly! Those patterns are wonderful. I could see myself in several of them over the next few months.
As always Lucy is just gorgeous (and she clearly knows it). 🙂

I love cowls because many times they can be made from only one skeins of luxury yarns and if you wear cowls instead of scarves, then you will never lose your neck wrap (I am always dropping in the snow or rain my scarf while my cowl always stays put.

Lovely cowls. I need to make myself one or two, because a number of my scarves are too long for my jackets. I dislike it when the scarves stick out the bottom!

So cool. I was looking at this book on the knit picks website yesterday trying to decide whether or not I wanted to get it. Now I think I do. Though of course it would be too cool to win it. Thank you for the review and ending my waffling.
